Answer 1

The correct answer is C. Eighteenth Amendment. The Eighteenth Amendment, which was ratified in 1919, established Prohibition in the United States, banning the manufacture, sale, and transportation of alcoholic beverages. This was a significant success for the temperance movement, which sought to reduce or eliminate alcohol consumption for moral and societal reasons, many of which were influenced by the revivalist spirit of the Great Awakening.
